Where you’ll be studying

You will be studying in the beautiful, rural setting of Cheshire, just one mile outside the busy market town of Nantwich and in easy access of Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool and Chester.

Our campus is small enough to retain a friendly, family atmosphere but large enough for you to mix with groups of like-minded students. There’s lots of clubs, societies and forums you can join and a lively programme of social events arranged by the Student Association.

Over recent years we’ve invested over £80 million into our campus to create the best possible environment for learning.
